I am Kevin Trinidad (pronouns: he/him), a graphic designer/all-around creative aficionado/weirdo at heart based in Quezon City, Philippines. Having earned a degree from studying graphic design locally and abroad, I've been in the business for more than five years.
With strengths in designing brand identities, illustrations, and layout designs, I create character-driven, people-focused and — dare I say — iconic design work for modern, ambitious, and forward-thinking brands. I am insanely obsessed with left-field design choices, breaking the status quo, and the idea of embracing what’s different. I am also severely allergic to the words “safe” and “boring”.
Working with clients across a wide range of industries, I tap into each client or project’s core ideas and selling points and give these the spotlight they need. I do this through thoughtfully-chosen combinations of type, color, and eye-catching key visuals.
When I'm not at work, you may find me on the saddle in a spin class, dabbling into fiction writing and character design, listening to pop music, and indulging in many things horror, thriller, sci-fi, and fantasy. I also happen to be passionate about mental health, suicide prevention, and LGBT+ rights.
1
Thinking caps, activate.
On the first meeting, you will not only get to lay down your project scope and timeline, but we’ll also get to know your business, strategy and objectives better through a series of prepared interview questions.
2
Concept creation, engage.
For us to better define our design direction, we’ll explore different visual ideas and potential concepts through mind mapping and mood boards. A set of initial studies and key visuals would then be made for you to chime in on and choose from.
3
Iterate until complete stop.
The chosen studies would then be evolved to become the final designs from which the rest of the deliverables would be based on. Some of the resulting deliverables may even be made with the help of some friends.
